He scored 11 goals in 46 games, including the second in City's Capital One Cup final win over Sunderland and the opener against West Ham on the final day of the season as they clinched the title.

He added: "It took me time to adjust to living in Manchester because when you move here from London, it is a big change, but last year everything was perfect: I enjoyed my football and I love living in Manchester, feel very settled and I think that showed on the pitch.

"That's why I've agreed this new contract -- because I feel very much at home. Our supporters have been right behind me and it gives me the confidence to play my best game.

"Now I'm looking forward to the new season and to defending our title again."

Left-back Aleksandar Kolarov has also signed a new contract with City this summer.
